This exercise is about a perceived need that many people have to keep climbing the ladder, or mountain, of spiritual attainment. The channeled exercise asks this question, “Do you have to find more and more spiritual things to do with your life in order to feel that you are a spiritual person? In order to live with the Truth About You — that you are a Child of God, and God, also?”

In Chapter 2 of our book, A New World Awakens, Saint-Germain talks about this. He talks about the illusion of spiritual attainment.

Saint-Germain says that, “[the illusion of needing to climb higher] always places the appreciation of who you are right now, just out of your reach.” He suggests that you may never fully realize the Truth About You, if you think you have to do something especially spiritual in order to BE Who You Really Are.

If you would also like to read the written transcript of this guided exercise with Saint-Germain, here it is:

“Let us talk for a moment about being in a new place of Truth.

“You have finally come to understand that living as your Soul does is your desire for this lifetime. You realize that this is the ultimate purpose of living on Earth for you. Any other desire is either a distraction from this, or else complements your desire for a New Life.

“You desire to discover more of Who You Really Are.

“You are so excited about this new discovery in your life, that you are bubbling over with enthusiasm. You have found a new sense of purpose. You feel it deeply, and your desire is growing.

“But then what happens?

“After a day or two, or perhaps a week or more, you find yourself crashing down again; falling back into your old way of doing things.

“Because you aren’t always clear about what is happening in these cases, your ego will try to step in and give you an answer. It will tell you, ‘Let’s try again, Dear. Let’s climb that mountain once again.’ And so you begin again.

“So, this time you undertake your ascent with even greater enthusiasm. You renew your journey of spiritual attainment with the hope that this time, you will find that elusive place of freedom, joy, certainty, and truth. And what happens?

“You climb and you fall again: Once, twice, and some times, even more often that this.

“As you continue repeating this experience of ‘climbing upward’ and then ‘falling back,’ – of ‘almost making it’ and then ‘failing again,’ – your trust begins to fade and your enthusiasm for the journey subsides. You get tired.

“‘Why is this happening to me?’ you might ask.

“Perhaps it is because you don’t want to climb the mountain over and over again. You may just want to be on the top of it – to just be there, and rest in that place of bliss.

“Well, how did you manage to fall off that mountain in the first place? Ask yourself this.

“Was it because of your doubt and fears?

“Could it be that even as you were about to reach the top of the mountain, you couldn’t believe that this was true? That your journey was almost done? That you were going to succeed and realize your desire at last? Soon you began to doubt yourself, and maybe even doubt the whole journey that you had taken. Does this sound familiar?

“Well… let’s see now. Let’s pause for a moment and consider this situation.

“Perhaps there’s an alternative to climbing the mountain of spiritual attainment that you haven’t considered before. Perhaps ‘efforting’ and striving are not necessary after all. Maybe you can be done with this, once and for all. How does this sound to you?

“How would you feel if I told you that you don’t have to climb that mountain in order to feel bliss?

“What if I told you that you don’t need to attain a higher vantage point to see the Truth About You?

“Yes, dear friends. We invite you now to feel this. Feel this deeply.

“Are you ready to let go of your climbing?

“Are you prepared to release the need to go higher, or to be better than you are right now?

“Are you ready to let go of ‘trying’? Can you see that all your ‘efforting’ only reinforces in your mind the mistaken belief that you must ‘do something’ in order to Be Who You Already Are?

“If your answer is ‘Yes,’ then we invite you now to stop. Please, stop trying. Stop wanting to ‘do more.’ Stop your climbing. Lay down your backpack, and all the provisions you have carried to survive your ascent. They aren’t necessary.

“Take off your boots and allow your feet the rest they deserve. Stop, and breathe deeply. Breathe, and allow your mind to come to a place of relaxation.

“Let your Soul be the guide in your life now. Stop now, and surrender completely. Fall gently into the arms of your Soul, and welcome the love It has for you.

“Allow your Soul to be the guiding light, and the guiding force in your life now. It won’t push you. It will take you into expansion. And so, you will stop trying to reach something that is always out of reach.

“Instead, embrace the certainty of Oneness with your Soul, and with God.

“Feel the peace, the comfort, and the ease that come from knowing you don’t have to ‘do anything’ to attain this Great Being. It is Who You Are!

“Be one with your Self. Be one with your Soul. Be one with God.

“And now give birth to this wonderful New You in your life. Love it, and support it, even as you are loved and supported by It.

“Indeed. It is my pleasure to surround you, my friends, in this joyful moment of your awakening.
“I Am Saint-Germain.”

[Excerpt of a message through Antera on 10/21/08, right after we finished
the last main grid point of the US land healing grid.]

Yes, we want to celebrate and to let you know that the whole project has been very, very successful, and is still in progress. What we’re seeing now is that as these connections were made with the other grid points, the entire grid was raised up a notch, was taken up to a higher level of frequency and function. I just wanted to say thank you so very much for your efforts, and it’s OK to pat yourselves on the back a little here. A job well done!

This circle around the country is finished and successful. Every point you have added is functional and working, and as these points get up to their maximum functionality it will really ramp up the energy in this country. I am so happy about that! This country is dear to my heart, and I do hope that there is a future for this country. This will help to raise the consciousness and to heal the negativity and I hope that we will see major changes happening in the near future.

In fact, already we have seen changes because of this work. We have seen many people awaken and open to a higher perspective. Now when I say ?awaken,? I mean that many people have been living in a haze as if they were partially asleep. I don’t know if you are aware of this, but it is true. And they, of course, are not adding positive things to the consciousness grid. They are not adding anything of import except the unconscious energies that they carry.

They live their daily lives, many of them have families and jobs. They do live their lives, but they are not awake. They are not aware of anything outside of that realm, and in fact that makes them very easy to control; and they are controlled, by the millions, through the media and other psychic ways.

If these people awaken and say, “Wait a minute, I don’t like this or that, I don’t like the way this is going and I’m going to do something about it… I’m going to start with some personal growth, I’m going to look at my issues, I’m going to heal, I’m going to use forgiveness, and let go of the past?” then we start to see some major changes in the whole consciousness of this country and the world.

This country is so important to the entire world culture! If we can change fundamental problems here, then other countries and other parts of the world will follow. We have seen this kind of thing happening already, we have seen sparks of light turn on in some minds out there. This we like to see, and it is a direct result of what you are doing, the energies you are adding to the planet, and the beings you are awakening and working with.

Those ancient beings, that you have pulled up from deep within the Earth and have communicated with, are already having an effect ? the ones in the Rockies, the one in Death Valley and the one you just summoned from the heart of Texas, of all places, ha, ha, ha! All of those ancient beings are having a tremendous effect on the evolution of each other, the entire nature spirit realm, and other beings of the higher realms. This will trickle into the human realm as well, because every human has a presence in higher realms whether they know it or not, and whether they are aware or not. As this trickles into their consciousness they will become more aware. They will have more of a connection to their divine nature, and to the angelic realms at least.

Because many people’s belief systems do include angels. If they can open up to angelic presences around them and absorb love and forgiveness that way, through their own belief system, they do not even need to change their beliefs. They only need to expand into the energy of the angels and allow that energy to come into their lives, and to be expressed in their day to day communications with others. This is what we are seeing, this is what we are so happy about. It will infiltrate throughout the land and throughout all of humanity!

Greetings and blessings are sent to you today from the very bottom of
my soul. A great sense of love is emerging on the inner planes of the
Creator’s universe that is so overwhelming but gratefully received as
it is supporting and encouraging us to continue with our work of
anchoring the consciousness of love onto the Earth. I hope that you
can also feel the essence of love as it is growing and materialising
within many of you on the Earth, within your beings and realities. I
must make you aware that as love anchors it can bring up negativity.
Love at this stage in the energy boost can bring up within you doubt,
judgment and can allow you to see clearly the situations in your life
that you are not comfortable or happy within. This is so that you are
able to make changes now. The loving energy is showing you the next
direction forward, demonstrating what you need to work on in your life
to create the reality you wish to live within. As the love energy
boosts positive thoughts it also amplifies and makes you aware of
negative judgemental thoughts. It is for this reason and to aid
greater healing within humanity that the Temple of Mercy has been
constructed. It is a place of sanctuary that I aid all to visit and to
most importantly ask for healing and cleansing at this period of
growth. Healing and cleansing is always essential but is greatly
needed now in order to encourage and make way for the anchoring or the
new age of love on the Earth.

As I watch over many of my students from the inner planes, I am aware
that some are having difficulty in understanding how to visit the
Temple of Mercy or are wondering if they are doing it correctly. With
my communication today I wish to try to resolve any confusion and try
to aid all in making a connection with the Temple of Mercy which is
the new ashram that has been constructed by the Ascended Masters at
Mount Shasta, being overseen by the Planetary Logos Lord Buddha. This
ashram is composed of light, vibrations and the intention of the
Ascended Masters. To access this energy you must also use your
intentions, your thoughts to ensure that a connection is made.
Experiencing the light of the temple whether you remain on the Earth
or are transported during meditation to the Temple is important and
sometimes all that is needed.

Each day and as many times of the day as you wish, ask for your soul,
physical body and reality to be aligned to the Temple of Mercy and for
high vibrational healing rays to anchor into your being to lift and
dissolve any negativity.

‘I ask for my soul, physical body and reality to be aligned to the
Temple of Mercy. Please anchor light, high vibrations and healing rays
into my being. Allow all negativity to be dissolved and love to
blossom from every aspect of my being. Allow me to experience the
healing rays of the Temple of Mercy now.’

If you wish you can use this invocation as a beginning to a meditation
that allows you to experience the energies of the temple. Simply sit
peacefully and relax your body. You may find it more beneficial to lie
down and focus on your breathing. If you find that your mind is
wondering and that you cannot gain focus on the meditation due to
random distracting thoughts then it is important to ask for a
cleansing and healing of your mind from the high vibrations of the
Temple of Mercy. You may experience a vibrant yellow ray of light
melting and seeping into your mind which will assist you in gaining
clarity. This may take practise but you can ask for healing as many
times as you wish. You can also ask to be aligned to the temples
energies of mastery, love, a higher consciousness, an increase in
spiritual abilities or an awakening of the soul. The temple’s energies
are equipped to assist you with anything that you need now in your
reality to allow you to follow your own spiritual path. It is
important to remember that whatever you ask to receive will be oversee
by your soul. Sometimes what you believe is appropriate for you now is
not what you truly need in your life. Your soul holds the larger
picture of your life on the Earth and should be allowed to guide you
accordingly.

To experience the energies of the temple you do not have to visit the
ashram but can draw the energies into your being to benefit from them.
You can also draw the most appropriate mentor to you to aid your
development by simply asking for your mentor who is tutoring you and
overseeing your work with the Temple of Mercy to step forward and make
themselves known to you. If this takes time and practise it doesn’t
matter as it is making you aware of aspects of your growth and being
that you need to master. Every time you invoke the energies of the
temple or sit down within the temple’s energies you are gaining a new
aspect of your mastery which is expanding your awareness and
developing your inner truth.

I wish to also remind you of the importance of asking to
visit the ashram at night while your body sleeps. I know that I have
spoken of this in last week’s message but I wish to emphasise how
essential it is as you will complete most of your growth and
development throughout your life on the inner planes during the sleep
states of your body on the Earth. Visiting the Temple of Mercy at
night will allow great healing processes to occur which can then be
integrated and anchored into your being and reality on the Earth.
Simply ask before you fall asleep at night to be transported to the
Temple of Mercy for healing and cleansing that will then be integrated
into your physical body and energy systems when you return to the Earth.

For those who wish to experience the Temple of Mercy, simply
asking in truth is all that is needed. You do not have to do
complicated techniques to connect with the temple. Simply ask with
faith, trust and a knowing in your heart that you will achieve this
mission.

First invoke the high vibrational light and love energies of
the Temple of Mercy to submerge you, allow the light to anchor into
your being and hold faith in your heart. If you experience any
unwanted thoughts creeping in, then send them love and know that you
have the ability to focus on the truth within your being. When you can
feel the energy around you ask for an aspect of your being to be
transported to the Temple of Mercy. Gradually you may become aware of
new surroundings, the temple appears to many in different ways but
some have experienced a pure white and soft blue sacred space that is
vast and expansive. Others have experienced a chamber that is solely
for their own use. Do not block your imagination or the insights that
you gain from the ashram. Whatever imagines, words of wisdoms or
sensations you receive allow them to unravel, with complete faith in
your heart and soul. If you have yet to meet your spiritual mentor,
then it is at this point that you can ask them to step forward to
greet you. Again have faith in your own abilities. Faith and trust is
the key to this process as well as practise.

You may also ask to visit the Chamber of Love, which is
within the Temple of Mercy. The Chamber of Love consists of a large
crystal point which has been programmed to embody pure love and
emanates it intensely into the chamber. You may sit before the crystal
point of love absorbing and anchoring the soft pink loving energies
into your being. It is akin to a glowing flame of pink light, so
bright and expansive. Allow yourself to experience pure love vibrations.

My dear friends I hope that my communication with you has been of
benefit and assisted in cleansing any confusion.

My love and blessings to you always,

Mahachohan Saint Germain

Please visit http://www.omna.org/email3-09-08.html for more
information about the changes and the boosts of energy of which
Mahachohan Saint Germain speaks of in this channelled material.

Greetings to you my dear fellow seekers of the light, I am the Mahachohan Saint
Germain and I draw close to you now with some special news that I wish to share with you
now. Many ascended masters on the inner planes have been extremely busy reconstructing
the Temple of Mercy as a healing, awakening and tutoring ashram to assist all in anchoring
greater love into their beings and coping with the deep emotions that can be caused.
Accepting love is an intense process of healing and cleansing until one is able to embody
love, the Temple of Mercy is being reconstructed to aid this development and to reassure
any fearful or worried minds. It is a vast ashram that will also aid you in accepting the
ascended masters’ energy of abundance into your life giving you the power to achieve
anything you desire in your reality by programming your mind with positive thoughts.
Manifesting is the key to the changes that are occurring on the Earth. One can sit and
visualise how they wish to live their reality, using the intense abundant energy of the
ascended masters as their fuel or driving thoughts, but focusing on negativity or having
neutral thoughts will mean that you will stay stagnant in your life. Change, growth and
development is the key to the ascended masters’ energy of abundance but one must place
their own efforts into creating their reality now as the powerful energies will not always
be available. Focus is needed now in order to direct the energies to divinely influence your
life. If you have been following our teachings and have been anchoring both the Christ
consciousness and the ascended masters’ abundant energies, we believe that now is the
time that you need our comfort, support, teachings and encouragement as change may be
on the horizon or fearful thoughts may be causing you anxiety, so we have created a sacred
temple to bring clarity and reassurance to all.

The Temple of Mercy has been reconstructed at Mount Shasta on the inner planes and
is being closely overseen by Lord Buddha, the Planetary Logos. The opening of the temple
will take place on the 29th October; the temple will close on the 17th November. We feel
that it is during this time frame that the temple will be needed most as an additional
cleansing temple to remove all old habits and negativity in preparation for the fourth
energy boost of the ascended masters’ energy of abundance which will be anchored on the
17th November. Many ascended masters are readying themselves to remain within the
temple over this time period as resident masters and spiritual teachers for all to benefit
from. The Temple of Mercy is so named because it is a sacred space created from light
and intention that will alleviate any distress, confusion or discomfort due to accelerated
growth or the releasing of old energy patterns during this time. The temple can offer
much new and exciting wisdom as well as helping them to understand the changes that are
occurring and the energy that the ascended masters are sharing with the Earth during this
special period of time from the present day into 2009. I believe that it is important for
every person to make use of the presences of the temple, whether you wish to gain healing,
cleansing, clarity, tutoring, enlightenment, activations of energies, to understand
manifestation or to simply aid development. Simply ask before you fall asleep at night to be
taken to the Ascended Master’s Temple of Mercy on the inner planes. Your personal
angels will guide you and ensure your safety at all times.

‘I ask the ascended masters to grant me to permission to enter the Temple Of Mercy
to assist my development on the Earth. May I benefit from the high vibrations of the
ashram and be drawn to the most appropriate resident master to assist me in this special
time of growth. I wish to gain …………… (e.g. healing.) Allow me to accept the abundant
energy of the ascended masters and the Christ consciousness on a deeper level than I
have ever experienced.
I invoke my personal angels to guide and protect me at all times, transport me while I
sleep to the Temple of Mercy, please assist me in remembering my journey when I wake in
the morning. Let it be.’

Know that you can visit the temple each night throughout the period of 29th October to
the 17th November. I encourage you to make use of this amazing and sacred tool that is
being reconstructed to aid your benefit and accelerated growth process.

I, the Mahachohan Saint Germain oversee the rays of light three to seven, working
Lord Buddha the Planetary Logos to oversee the Earth and ensure that the necessary
energies are being anchored into the Earth. The third ray of light is the ray of
manifestation and so many energies, intentions and ideas are channelled through the third
ray of light to assist and ensure that they manifest and materialise onto the Earth. The
Temple of Mercy was reconstructed by the manifestation power of the third ray of light
of a yellow colour. I have anchored all rays three to seven into the Temple of Mercy as a
supportive energy to aid inspiration and enlightenment while you are in existence within the
temple. The temple can become a sanctuary where you may anchor and experience the rays
of light for yourself.

I believe that it is necessary to make the most of the short time that the temple will
be available to you as we are not sure when it may be reconstructed again. It is therefore
a wonderful idea to meditate asking your ascended master guides to either align you to the
energies of the Temple of Mercy and to allow the high vibrational soothing energy to
channel into your being through your crown chakra at the top of your head or to ask to be
transported to the Temple of Mercy on the inner planes during your meditation practices.
It may be interesting for you to practise this. Simply ask your ascended master guides to
transport you to the Temple of Mercy overseeing your meditation. State that you wish to
sit within the temple, absorbing your surroundings and the high vibrations. You may also ask
that the appropriate master in residence within the temple comes to speak with you
offering new teachings and guidance. It may be interesting to discover which ascended
master comes to speak with you as you will then be able to call on this master to aid your
connection with the Temple of Mercy and to assist your spiritual development on the Earth.
Allow your breathing to become deep and your mind to become still, simply accept the
energies, visions, insights and enlightenment that you receive. The more you practice the
deeper your connection will become with the temple allowing you to access high levels of
energy and wisdom within the temple. You may call on my energy to aid your connection to
the temple, simply repeat my name ‘Mahachohan Saint Germain,’ I shall draw close to your
being to assist you in experiencing the energies of the Temple of Mercy.

The temple will assist many in dealing with the third boost of energy that will be sent forth
from the ascended masters on the inner planes onto the Earth into those who are receptive
to their energies and into the love crystal that have been planted across the world. A
higher vibration of abundant energy is being anchored into the Earth by the ascended
masters to assist in the manifestation of love onto the Earth and abundance into the lives
of those who focus their minds on mastery and their actions on experiencing love. While the
second boost of energy was focused on the third eye chakra, manifesting love and positive
thoughts through the third eye chakra at the brow, the fourth boost of energy is focused
on the throat chakra, expressing enlightened thoughts, love and the wisdom of your soul
through your throat chakra, voice and while you communicate with others. This is a special
time as we are beginning to see that our thoughts can manifest onto the Earth through our
voice and the way that we speak about ourselves and others. Voicing negative thoughts
constantly will only create a negative reality. Speaking of positivity and love will allow you
to take a new step of materialising your dreams onto the Earth. Thoughts spoken can be
extremely powerful as they create their own energy vibration and tone which manifests
into your reality as well as your aura. Again this is a time where disciple is needed within
the mind to concentrate on positive thoughts but to also continue to anchor the ascended
masters’ abundant energy and the Christ consciousness loving energy into your body and
energy systems. Imagine these energies entering into your crown chakra at the top of your
heart and channelling out through your throat chakra so that you activate your throat
chakra and allow it to express love and light always. Continue to imagine your thoughts
being expressed through your third eye chakra as it emanates light as a beacon into your
reality but now is the time to activate your throat chakra allowing it to express the same
positive thoughts as your third eye chakra. Allow the third boost of energy from the
ascended masters to anchor into your throat chakra, asking for it to be activated and to
express light of the highest vibration at all times.

While the third boost of energy is a raise in vibration and continues to focus on anchoring
love and achieving mastery over the mind, it marks a special occasion of integration. The
energy of the angelic kingdom will become united with the ascended masters’ energy of
abundance and will channel as a combined energy into the Earth. The angelic kingdom has
always supported the Earth, humanity and the recent work of the ascended masters but
they have been channelling their own vibrations of love and abundance separately into the
Earth. Now the soft pink energy of the angelic kingdom merges with the ruby red intense
energy of the ascended masters’ energy of abundance. This is an important energy
integration that boosts the energy that you will receive when you anchor the ascended
masters’ energy of abundance into your being each day and throughout the day. The angelic
influence may create a softer nurturing feeling to the energy that you are accustomed to
receiving when invoking the ascended masters’ energy. Angels of abundance have been
assigned to assist all who call on the ascended masters’ energy of abundance while angels
of love are assigned to the Christ consciousness surrounding all who invoke the golden
Christ consciousness in additional love from the angelic kingdom. Gradually the ascended
masters will unite many realms and kingdom to channel energy through them into the Earth
to aid your integration with the kingdoms and universe of the Creator on the inner planes.

It is important that while the energy of the ascended masters and the angelic kingdom is
being focused on your throat chakra in addition to your third eye chakra that you remain
aware of your spoken words as well as the thoughts you create. Ensure that you remember
that every word you speak has a vibration and creates an impact in the life you lead and the
lives of others. Focus on expressing love of the highest vibration through your thoughts and
through the words that you speak allowed. Make it your mission to exist as a beacon of love
and manifest the love of the Creator into your life by expressing love through your words
and the vibration of your voice.

Remember that if you are anchoring our teachings into your being that it is appropriate for
you to connect with and visit the Temple of Mercy discovering who is your resident spiritual
mentor.

To aid you in understanding your purpose during this period of the third boost of energy I
have created this list;

Ask for your throat chakra to be cleansed and activated.

Ask for the ascended masters’ energy of abundance and the Christ consciousness to be
anchored into your throat and expressed from your throat chakra.

Ask to visit the Temple of Mercy during your sleep state.

Ask to visit the Temple of Mercy during meditation to experience the temple and discover
who your tutor is within the temple.

The following channel is part of a reading that was requested by a client.

Dear friend, you’ve had a heart-attack, and the good news is that you are still here.

I am Yeshua, along with Saint-Germain, my dear friend, Miriam, and Alexandra and Dan. We’ve come to join you in a moment of silent reflection.

Beloved, there is nothing more to ponder. There is no “why me?” to it. The facts are that it happened, and you are here. This is all that matters. You are here because your experiences on Earth have not yet been completed. There is still more to come. Spirit has something in mind for you.

Please remember Who You Are. You are the voice and hands of God. You are here to help accomplish the Great Work. You ask us whether your time on Earth is done. Tell me, what do you feel?

After such an occurrence as yours, it is understandable to question whether your life has come to its natural end. Please know that you have reached a major turning point in your earthly sojourn, not an end to it.

A lifetime of experiences culminated for you when you had your heart attack. Now you find yourself at a crossroads, standing at the intersection of “what was, and what still could be”. Before continuing your journey, it is appropriate to consider which path you will take up. We ask you to be still for a moment and review this.

Standing at the Crossroads

First, my friend, consider that you’ve had a lifetime to recognize that you are loved by God – that you are a Child of God and loved in every moment of your very precious life. In the lifetime you have just completed, you have come to know this with certainty, and you have felt its uplifting and inspiring effects.

Secondly, you’ve had ample opportunity to listen to those around you – to feel the impact of their beliefs and to suffer from their distorted perceptions about love. You have observed how they judge you, themselves, and the world around them. How they crave, yet fail to recognize the Love of God that is there for all. You have come to know this with certainty, and you have felt its oppressive effects.

Here at the crossroads, you hold a lifetime of experiences in the balance. Now you can make a decision about them. You’ve experienced the truth of God’s Love, and the pain of its denial. You know that denial carries you downward in a spiral of fear, conflict, and strife, whereas affirmation and alignment enliven your spirits.

Since your experiences have led you to the certainty that only God’s Love is real and true, and everything else is false and unreal, your decision at the crossroads is clear. You can take up the path of joy and love, if you choose, and turn your back on the path of pain and suffering forever.

I ask you to look at your beliefs in the coming days, and release anything that no longer serves you on your New Path.

Your New Life Begins

Good friend, your heart is recovering from the pain and hurt of a lifetime. It will continue to do this, as you release your fear of being separated from God’s Love. This worry may still haunt you, and it is understandable, especially considering the trauma you have recently experienced. But this fear is not yours. It belongs to a world, and a life path, that you have left behind. Your passage in joy is assured, if you allow it. Remember this, and it will free you from the dominion of fear.

In the days of recovery that lie before you, remind yourself daily of the truth about love. This will take you into a higher, more refined awareness. Here you will perceive yourself correctly – as the perfect, and perfectly unique embodiment of God’s Love That You Are.

This true perception will bring an even greater flow of life force into your cells. It will revive your body, mind, and emotions, and help you move into the next phase of your life; because indeed, there is New Life for you here.

Cherished one, you will be of great service to God, humanity, and your ideals. We know that you have a great desire to realize a vision of peace, love, and universal brotherhood – to be in service to these grand ideals. You will receive new assignments from your Soul about this soon. But for now, I encourage you to bear witness to the miracle of your life, and allow this knowledge to revitalize you.

Your New Life begins now. Allow this to be so, and so it shall be.

A strong message from St. Germaine on the meaning and purpose of his gift of the Violet Flame – a must read.

Greetings, I AM St. Germaine, keeper of the Violet Flame, keeper of the I AM. Ancient friend, teacher, and healer, and ancient friend, which is what I want you to remember. I sit with you during this time to help you recall, to bring forward what you have always known, to help you assist in the healing of others and of this planet. I want to remind you that this gift of the Violet Flame is not something, my beloved friends, that you need to acquire. It is something that I have given you long ago, something that has been imbedded within you and that you have carried with you since the time of Atlantis.

Each of you have gone through many dark nights and many dark days, dark times when you thought the light would never shine again. But you persisted and you never stopped and now this time is upon you and yes, you are the brave ones that actually incarnate and walk this sacred Earth, this world that is filled with wonder, but also filled with confusion and hatred and greed, and gentleness and Love. I walked the world for hundreds and thousands of years waiting for this time when the plan would be resurrected, dusted off and brought out not just to be shown but to be implemented.
I work with you from this side – I give you my tools and I give you my very essence, for that is what the blue diamond of the Mother is and that is what my Violet Flame is. It is not simply a handy tool that you can use when you feel like it; it is my essence that I give you. These are the gifts that are being brought forward. You are my torch bearers. You wear my amulet and you carry the truth and the knowing of healing within your heart. I wish you to reignite these flames that I have imbedded within you, within your hands and your fingers, in your heart and your third eye. I wish these to be reignited this day and to stay reignited to burn brightly as the message and the reminder that you are the I AM.

This is not something you are endeavoring to become; it is something you have always been, that you carry within you, deep within you. But do not hide it, that is false modesty, that is false humility and there is no room for it, not during this time of rapid change. You step forward each in your own way to heal the collective. This is done with genuine humility, with an honoring of the sacred self, with an honoring and an understanding of the privilege that is bestowed upon you. This is not a burden, this is an honor and it is an honor that you have claimed for yourself. Is it easy? No. Is it worth it? Yes. And the day will come when we will sit together again and break bread and share our stories of victory. It is not about being flamboyant, as I have often been accused of. It is about being clear and not hiding behind a smoke screen. You have not only my support, but the support of millions and millions – you have no idea. You are fortified in unimaginable ways. If you choose to take advantage of this, and why would you not, then there is nothing, nothing that you cannot accomplish. From the anchoring of Cities of Light, to the opening of portals, to the creation of Nova Beings, you have come to see, to witness, to participate, and to lead the fulfillment of the promise. So, do so.

Show them the way; show them the mirror of who they truly are. I do not ask for my essence in any way ever to overshadow you, none of us do. For that would be dishonoring of your sacred being which is mighty. But, let us participate, let us help, and let us fortify. I do not walk the Earth, I do not walk the Earth ever again, but that does not mean that my Love for the Earth and for all of you is not present. It is always and ever present. You are my armada of healers. And this armada is not founded in the mediocre. It is founded in the strength and truth and the ability to stand and truly be counted, by not denying and side-stepping. It is being your true, peaceful warrior, the warriors of healing, that is why I use this term armada. You’re the ones that have venture out. You are the ones that have agreed and taken this mantle of responsibility. And for this I thank you, we thank you, and we will never, ever let you down. Let us help. Go in peace.

The following is part of a session that is reproduced here with our client’s consent:

“Hello. I would like to have some clarity on conscious creation. How do I create what I would like to experience? I’m not sure what steps to take. Can you provide me with some guidance on this? Thank you.”

Dear Friend,

We are Saint-Germain and Yeshua, along with your Angelic Team, Alexandra, and Dan.

Please take a moment and breathe with us. Breathe, and receive the Love That You Are. Be still, and listen to the whisperings of your Soul.

Many times you have felt a desire to contact Spirit. You sit, and wait for a connection that inspires you – one that gives you hope and fills you with a zest for living. You experience a bit of an opening, but then feel you are shutting down again, and wonder what is going on.

Receiving Guidance

Perhaps you are expecting guidance about creation to strike you like a bolt of lightning from above, when more often it speaks from the still, small voice within. This is the voice of your Soul. It is the sound of you, when you are untroubled by worries, or by desires to improve your current circumstances.

The expectations in your mind, coupled with strong desires about what you might like to create, keep you confused and feeling tired. They agitate your mind and intensify your emotions without giving you any clear idea of what to do. This creates a sense of futility, exhaustion, and an inability to conceive and coordinate right action.

You have come here to receive the voice of Spirit. To partake of the love and wisdom it freely offers you. Turn this matter over to your Soul. It knows exactly what to do. The only thing that is required of you is to listen quietly to what it says.

To hear your Soul, you first must calm your mind and curb the intensity of your desires. Troubled waters neither reflect the clarity above them, nor reveal the depths below. And so it is with communication. Allow quietness to find you, instead. Don’t seek it. It is a natural condition. When your mind is quiet and your emotions calm, you will be able to receive the guidance that will help you satisfy all your true desires.

Getting To Stillness

To reach a place of stillness and receive guidance from your Soul, you must be willing to feel everything around you, without necessarily identifying yourself with it. If you are afraid to feel anything, then this same fear may interfere with your ability to sense the presence of Divinity around you.

To reopen the channels of communication with your Soul, you must first be willing to touch old emotional hurts that may reside within you. These are parts of you that were made to feel isolated and unloved in your past. To reintegrate these fragments of yourself and feel your wholeness again, you must re-experience your traumas, but without identifying yourself with them.

When you allow yourself to feel your past wounds in this way, you can safely welcome home the parts of yourself that have felt unwanted, unloved, or not good enough. You accept them, just as they are, allowing your love to transform them into something better. Healing your past restores your ability to feel your emotions without fear, and this in turn improves your capacity to perceive the flow of guidance from your Soul.

When you touch upon emotional wounds, please be gentle with yourself and accept the love that comes to you from your own Divinity. Allow it to embrace you, and hold you. This will remind you that you are not alone, and that you are truly loved, safe, and secure.

Once you are able to love yourself as you are, without judgment, expectation, or regrets about the past, then you will open widely to assistance. You will enter a place of quiet contemplation that is the point of reconnection to your Soul. From there, your Soul will take you beyond any barrier that past suffering and loneliness may have brought you. You will feel connected again, and you will feel inspired.

Entering the Flow

From this place of stillness, you will move into a flow of love and harmony with your Soul that will show you the best way to express yourself – whether creatively, in relationships, or in other things. The ease of flow that arises from your experience of stillness will allow you to create things that bring you joy, keep you inspired, and reassure you that the world is a safe place where you are free to explore its truth and beauty.

You will no longer fall into situations that feel inappropriate to you, or that tire you instead of inspire you. And you will stop creating these same experiences again under the mistaken belief that you must do this in order to survive physically, emotionally, or economically.

Your relationships will change, too. They will change as you release the fear of losing everything you might have already established, or that you may be afraid of creating differently now. When you release these fears, you will see through the illusion of needing to build an environment that makes you feel safe, and you will begin to live your life with renewed trust and confidence.

Conscious Creation

There are several basic steps to conscious creation that you may already know, but we will review them with you now:

1) First of all, you should recognize that you attract into your life people, things, and experiences that match your beliefs about the world, and about who you think you are.

2) You often do this unconsciously, but you can also do it consciously.

3) If you are creating unconsciously, you may be responding to unresolved fears, or to the belief that something is missing or unfulfilled in your life.

4) But when you create consciously, you deny lack any place in your mind. You remember that you are a Child of God, and God also, and that you can have anything your heart desires because You Are Everything.

5) Affirm that everything you desire is within you Now, whether it is an enriching experience, an intimate moment, or a kind word.

6) With the certainty that you are denied nothing, look about yourself and observe how you are already experiencing the ESSENCE of what you would like to create – be it prosperity, partnership, or anything else.

7) Once you have identified how you are already experiencing the essence of what you desire, choose to have MORE of it.

8) This is the key to conscious creation: Ask for more of what you enjoy, acknowledging that its essence is already present in your life.

9) When you do this, you will find that you can transform essence into substance easily. You can do this in new ways if you like, or simply maintain or increase what you are enjoying now.

10) Remember to focus on essence before details.

11) For example, if you would like to experience more peace in your life, then identify the peace you are already feeling now, give thanks for it, and ask for more. Indicate your preferences for how you might like to enjoy more peace, but be willing to accept what is delivered. Trust that your Soul will provide the perfect match for you.

12) Never forget that as

a Child of God, and God also, You Are Everything. And because you are, you can enjoy the essence of what you desire right now. The rest is just attraction and amplification.

13) Remember that when you deny the illusion of lack, you affirm the Reality of Plenty.

14) This opens the doors of manifestation, and lets you create anything your heart desires.

And so it is with conscious creation.

Know that you are dearly loved, and that you are supported in all that you choose to create.

The Awakening:

A time comes in your life when you finally get it when in the midst of all your fears and insanity you stop dead in your tracks and somewhere the voice inside your head cries out ENOUGH! fighting and crying or struggling to hold on. And, like a child quieting down after a blind tantrum, your sobs begin to subside, you shudder once or twice, you blink back your tears and through a mantle of wet lashes you begin to look at the world through new eyes.
This is your Awakening
You realize it's time to stop hoping and waiting for something to change or for happiness, safety and security to come galloping over the next horizon. You come to terms with the fact that he is not Prince Charming and you are not Cinderella and in the real world there aren't always Fairy Tale endings (or beginnings for that matter) and that any guarantee of "happily ever after" must begin with you and in the process a sense of serenity is born of acceptance.
You awaken to the fact you are not perfect and not everyone will always love, appreciate or approve of who or what you are and that's OK. (They are entitled to their own views and opinions.) And you learn the importance of loving and championing yourself and in the process a sense of new found confidence is born of self approval.
You stop complaining and blaming other people for the things they did to you (or didn't do for you) and you learn that the only thing you can really count on is the unexpected. You learn people don't always say what they mean or mean what they say and not everyone will always be there for you and that it's not always about you. So, you learn to stand on your own and to take care of yourself and in the process a sense of safety and security is born of self-reliance.
You stop judging and pointing fingers and you begin to accept people as they are, and to overlook their shortcomings and human frailties, and in the process a sense of peace and contentment is born of forgiveness. You realize that much of the way you view yourself, and the world around you, is as a result of all the messages and opinions that have been ingrained into your psyche. And you begin to sift through all the things you've been fed about how you should behave, how you should look, and how much you should weigh, what you should wear, and where you should shop, and what you should drive, how and where you should live, and what you should do for a living, who you should sleep with, who you should marry, and what you should expect of a marriage, the importance of having and raising children or what you owe your parents.
You learn to open up to new worlds and different points of view. And you begin reassessing and redefining who you are what you really stand for. You learn the difference between wanting and needing and you begin to discard the doctrines and values you've outgrown, or should never have bought into to begin with, and in the process you learn to go with your instincts.
You learn it is truly in giving that we receive. And there is power and glory in creating and contributing and you stop maneuvering through life merely as a "consumer" looking for your next fix. You learn principles such as honesty and integrity are not the outdated ideals of a by-gone era but the mortar that holds together the foundation upon which you must build a life. You learn you don't know everything, its not your job to save the world and you can't teach a pig to sing. You learn to distinguish between guilt and responsibility and the importance of setting boundaries and learning to say NO. You learn the only cross to bear is the one you choose to carry and that martyrs get burned at the stake.
Then you learn about love. Romantic love and familial love. How to love, how much to give in love, when to stop giving and when to walk away. You learn not to project your needs or your feelings onto a relationship. You learn you will not be more beautiful, more intelligent, more lovable or important because of the man or woman on your arm or the child that bears your name.
You learn to look at relationships as they really are and not as you would have them be. You stop trying to control people, situations and outcomes. You learn just as people grow and change so it is with love and you learn you don't have the right to demand love on your terms just to make you happy.
You learn that alone does not mean lonely And you look in the mirror and come to terms with the fact you will never be a size 5 or a perfect 10 and you stop trying to compete with the image inside your head and agonizing over how you "stack up."
You also stop working so hard at putting your feelings aside, smoothing things over and ignoring your needs. You learn feelings of entitlement are perfectly OK .and that it is your right to want things and to ask for the things that you want and that sometimes it is necessary to make demands.
You come to the realization you deserve to be treated with love, kindness, sensitivity and respect and you won't settle for less. And, you allow only the hands of a lover who cherishes you to glorify you with her or his touch and in the process you internalize the meaning of self-respect.
And you learn your body really is your temple. And you begin to care for it and treat it with respect. You begin eating a balanced diet, drinking more water and taking more time to exercise. You learn fatigue diminishes the spirit and can create doubt and fear. So you take more time to rest. And, just as food fuels the body, laughter fuels our soul. So you take more time to laugh and to play.
You learn, that for the most part, in life you get what you believe you deserve and that much of life truly is a self-fulfilling prophecy.
You learn anything worth achieving is worth working for and wishing for something to happen is different from working toward making it happen. More importantly, you learn in order to achieve success you need direction, discipline and perseverance. You also learn no one can do it all alone and that it's OK to risk asking for help.
You learn the only thing you must truly fear is the great robber baron of all time FEAR itself. You learn to step right into and through your fears because you know whatever happens you can handle it and to give in to fear is to give away the right to live life on your terms. And you learn to fight for your life and not to squander it living under a cloud of impending doom. You learn life isn't always fair, you don't always get what you think you deserve and sometimes bad things happen to unsuspecting, good people. On these occasions you learn not to personalize things. You learn no one is punishing you or failing to answer your prayers. It's just life happening.
And you learn to deal with evil in its most primal state the ego.
You learn negative feelings such as anger, envy and resentment must be understood and redirected or they will suffocate the life out of you and poison the universe that surrounds you. You learn to admit when you are wrong and to building bridges instead of walls.
You learn to be thankful and to take comfort in many of the simple things we take for granted, things that millions of people upon the earth can only dream about: a full refrigerator, clean running water, a soft warm bed, a long hot shower.
Slowly, you begin to take responsibility for yourself by yourself and you to make yourself a promise to never betray yourself and to never ever settle for less than your heart's desire. And you hang a wind chime outside your window so you can listen to the wind. And you make it a point to keep smiling, to keep trusting, and to stay open to every wonderful possibility. Finally, with courage in your heart and with faith by your side you take a stand, you take a deep breath and you begin to design the life you want to live as best as you can.

May God protect You…

May God protect you
From scary nights,
from hasty flights;
From too much food,
from a somber mood;
From ringing bells,
from self-made hells;
From sickish pains,
from dishonest gains;
From excessive needs,
from tricky deeds;
From foolish quarrels,
from resting on laurels;
From silly fears,
from idle tears;
From forgotten lines,
And from all bad times.
We pray,
Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

Dawn of New Beginnings

O God,
We thank you for this earth, our home; for the wide sky and the blessed sun, for the ocean and streams, for the towering hills and the whispering wind, for the trees and green grass.
We thank you for our senses by which we hear the songs of birds, and see the splendor of fields of golden wheat, and taste autumn's fruit, rejoice in the feel of snow, and smell the breath of spring flowers.
Grant us a heart opened wide to all this beauty; and save us from being so blind that we pass unseeing when even the common thornbush is aflame with your glory.
For each new dawn is filled with infinite possibilities for new beginnings and new discoveries. Life is constantly changing and renewing itself. In this new day of new beginnings with God, all things are possible. We are restored and renewed in a joyous awakening to the wonder that our lives are and, yet, can be.
Amen.

Earth Day Prayer

O GOD,
we thank you for this earth, our home; for the wide sky and the blessed sun, for the ocean and streams, for the towering hills and the whispering wind, for the trees and green grass.
We thank you for our senses by which we hear the songs of birds, and see the splendor of fields of golden wheat, and taste autumn's fruit, and rejoice in the feel of snow, and smell the breath of spring flowers.
GRANT US a heart opened wide to all this beauty; and save us from being so blind that we pass unseeing when even the common thornbush is aflame with your glory.

Keeping It In Focus

Charles Haddon Spurgeon wrote many years ago:
"There is no place where God is not. God is there in a thousand wonders, upholding rocky barriers, filling the buttercups with their perfume and refreshing the lonely pines with the breath of his mouth. Descend…into the lowest depths of the ocean, where undisturbed water sleeps, and the very sand is motionless in unbroken quiet, but the glory of the Lord is there, revealing its excellence in the silent palace of the sea. Borrow the wings of the morning and fly to the uttermost parts of the sea, but God is there."
His beauty is stamped in all of creation:
The glory of God can be seen
from the smallest raindrop
to the mighty flash of lightning;
from the tiny rosebud
to the huge magnolia blossom;
from the rich, fertile soil of the Mississippi Delta
to the arid, dusty land of the desert.
We can see His stamp of glory in all the world,
from the music of a sparkling brook
to the majestic tumbling waterfall;
from the gnarled, gentle hands of a loving grandfather
to the birth-fresh fragility of a baby’s fingernail;
from the silence of the stars to the peal of thunder;
from the mirror-like smoothness of a placid lake
to the wind-driven thunderous waves smashing on the shore.
In the fresh greenery of the spring; in the dazzling color of autumn; in the joy of discovery on a baby’s face; and in the fulfillment and meaning of the New Birth, we can see the glory of God.
